Spura's Discussion

Why not change it to a damage redutcion skill of about "5%...20%...25% on physical damage", instead of the high armor against only 3 weapon classes?

Example: "Echo. For 20 seconds, target non-Spirit ally has a 5%...20%...25% damage reduction against physical damage. This Echo is reapplied every time a Chant or Shout ends on that ally."

Still easy to counter, but not as useless as it is now... ^^ A. von Rin 23:34, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

How about this: "Echo. For 20 seconds, target non-Spirit ally has +5..20 armor against melee damage. This Echo is reapplied every time a Chant or Shout ends on that ally."--76.64.101.25 02:28, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Armor stacking.
I'm gonna lean towards "Echo. for 20 seconds, target non-spirit ally takes 5...17...20% less damage from physical damage. This echo is reapplied every time a chant or shout ends on that ally." -- Armond WarbladeUser Armond sig image.png 04:06, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Make it damage reduction. Make it end if target foe uses an attack skill, this is passive defense, we need to be careful about it.
You want to make paraway even better? — Skadiddly[슴Mc슴]Diddles 17:34, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Paraway's going to be imba until shouts and leadership are looked at, end of subject. May as well make a few crap-but-with-potential skills decent in the meantime. -- Armond WarbladeUser Armond sig image.png 21:46, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

% reduction is good. The problem is how to keep it from being imbalanced. --Life Infusion «T» 04:20, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

It isn't imbalanced as soon as you use elemental-inscriptions in your weapons. If bad players don't switch their weapons, it is ok when they lose... ^^ A. von Rin 01:03, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
I'd very much like it have like 5-10 ish damage reduction.

I like the idea, but I dont like how it forces people to use elemental weapons (reducing viability of things like OoP), and I dont like how it essentially is a non-elite way around the armor stack nerf.. Every team would soon be including it, even at 5-10%. --Angelic Loki 02:48, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
